Is Social Media Actually Connecting People?

Good morning all of you.

In my opinion,

Yes, social media really connecting us. Now we can talk with anyone in this world no need to go here and there. It all just possible by the internet. But most of the people using social media very badly like bullying, cybercrime, blackmail, sharing other personal photos, hacking personal details etc. So, social media is good as well as bad just like a coin has two sides. It is up to us how do we use it, that can be for betterment or destruction.

In short, I can say that yes, social media really connecting us, example the early time I was not able to talk with my villagers and my friends but now with the use of social media I can talk with them easily. We must use social media for our betterment, not for destruction.

Hello everyone,

According to me, social media is connecting the people but virtually. We spend lots of time on social media that results in make distance from our parents and spend our life with silence. We have been so busy in life using social networking site like facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter, Instagram, etc so that our interest of talk to parents and also the nearby person is day by day is decreasing. Also, we spend 90 per cent of our time with text the message. So social media is disconnecting the people.

Thank you.

According to me, yes social media is connecting people.

But now, it has become a medium to show off people are just doing stuff to improve their social media presence.

Actually, there are both advantages as you know, it is all depending on you how many times you use social media and how can we use it and how it will be helpful for us that's all depends on you.

Thank you so much for giving me this golden opportunity.

Hello friends.

In my opinion, social media is a good tool for communication but not a good tool for a human soul-satisfying connection. You think yourself what gives you more happiness real face to face meet up with your old buddy or a connection with him through social media, ofcourse, the answer would be the first one for the majority. In an era when group activity has been replaced by group chats, meetups replaced by skype calling we have lost the art of making the connection. Take the commmon example at a waiting place all are busy with their phones so making us disconnected. We also cannnot verify the genuineness of virtual communication so it can never replace the trust we have in face to face communication.

It actually doesn't. We ourselves indulge in scrolling down the phone screens, thus forget to converse with our neighbor ones. Here we lack connectivity in our real life. Though we get lot many friends in social media it won't help us in real life, thus people should live in reality rather searching friends in online.

Hello friends!

I think that Social media has emerged as a very powerful and effective tool of communication that has converted the entire world into a global village.

But, here the topic of our discussion is that is it really connecting people. According to my opinion, yes! It is connecting people but in virtual relationships. And we are getting deep down in these relations that we have started ignoring our real relations. But the reality is that most of the virtual relationships are fake so due to these fake relations we should not neglect our actual real relations.

People these days have thousands of friends on WhatsApp, FB etc. But they don't have even a single one with them that can understand his /her friend and can help him/her when there is need of a friend.

In the age, when a son should be a friend of his father, he is busy with thousands of friends on social media.

In the form of conclusion, I would like to say that social media has definitely reduced the physical distances but has enhanced the distance between hearts. Thank you.

In my opinion, social media is helpful and harmful. It means, It depends on the people how they use.

Yes, social media is connecting people. Today's generation uses this social media more. People who lost contact for years can be found through facebook, Instagram etc, and can connect with them. Through social we can meet many people, good ones can boost our confidence, and bad ones may create problems. So whatever happens to us we are only responsible. So We should be careful.

I think social media is actually connecting and at the same time disconnecting people. In fact, it is connected to the people who are miles away from us and disconnecting to the people in our close vicinity. We can't enjoy the present moment just because we want to capture the moment and post in on social media. Till now I didn't use social media and I never faced any kind lack of important information. With Google in my hand, I don't think I would miss out my important information. Social media is killing time. The average person is spending at least 2 hours on social media. Instead, he can invest the same time in focussing on his goals. There is no room for habits like book reading, spending time with loved ones after the advent of social media. Lack of attention to our loved ones because of indulging in social media is deteriorating human relations. Social media is also responsible for aggression, envy, etc. When your friend posts a pic for hers and gets a good number of likes, even you want to post your pic. Firstly it wastes your time. Secondly, in case you don't get a good number of likes, you start feeling bad about your looks. It's not letting you be happy with what you have. Fake news has become quite a part of our vocabulary. People just believe what they see in social media and believe it's true. There are cases where people took extreme steps and lost their lives. Radicalisation through social media is increasing terrorism, which is a global threat. Young minds are being filled with hatred on their own nation and as a result, terrorist networking is increasing.

According to me every term has it's own pros and cons and here social media have also.

At one point, social media is connecting people by Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp etc. With the help of social media, people can easily connect to each other whether they are far away from them and can talk for hours and also we can get daily updates on social media we need not to use new apps and by this people become broad-minded.

But on other hand, people use for the negative way also social media is connecting people only on many virtual ones people forget to go out talk with someone they become far from the limited real ones and it has many negatives ways but it depends on people how they take it and apply on them.

Thank you!
